Comment (by kencu):

 upgrading ld64 is always a bit of an adventure, like upgrading cctools ...
 there are going to be lots of workarounds needed to get the older systems
 to build it.

 I guess the simple reason it hasn't been updated is that the current
 ld64-450 can link pretty much anything we currently make.

 And we still haven't found a way to bootstrap to using even that
 (ld64-450) as the default llinker on older systems, so the actual linker
 being used is usually much older.
